About 0UCB3ZZ

0UCB3ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a extirpation procedure on the endometrium using a percutaneous approach. In ICD-10-PCS, extirpation means taking or cutting out solid matter from a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to other operations on cervix and uterus, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (69.99).

For a different body part, codes include 0UC03ZZ (right ovary), 0UC13ZZ (left ovary), 0UC23ZZ (bilateral ovaries), 0UC43ZZ (uterine supporting structure), 0UC53ZZ (right fallopian tube), 0UC63ZZ (left fallopian tube) and 6 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0UCB0ZZ (open), 0UCB4ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic), 0UCB7ZZ (via natural or artificial opening) and 0UCB8ZZ (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 749 (Other Female Reproductive System O.R. Procedures with CC/MCC) and DRG 750 (Other Female Reproductive System O.R. Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical category “Other Female Reproductive System O.R. Procedures”.

It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
